Speaking to the Fars News Agency, Falahatpisheh, who is a member of the Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, said that the threats of assassination of top Iranian officials reinforce the speculation that Washington had been involved in the assassinations of Iranian officials in the past.

He went on to say that basically U.S. officials adopt a policy of terrorism toward the countries or movements that are opposed to their approaches.

The lawmaker also said such remarks are not surprising because Iran has already witnessed many U.S.-backed terrorist actions by the White House.

Retired U.S. Army general Jack Keane on Wednesday pointed to claims by the U.S. that Iran had plotted to kill the Saudi ambassador to Washington and said, “Why are we permitting the Quds Force leaders who have been organizing this killing of us for 30 years to go around still walking around? Why don’t we kill them? We kill other people who are running terrorist organizations against the United States.”

Former CIA agent Reuel Marc Gerecht also said on Wednesday, “I don’t think that you are going to really intimidate these people, get their attention, unless you shoot somebody.”
